Import Tips
• Obtain catch certificates from origin country to prove legal sourcing; toothfish quotas are strictly enforced
• Ensure fillets weigh under whole fish equivalent to avoid bulk reclass; document trimming process
• Avoid vacuum-packing if it implies preservation; loose ice-packed for true fresh status
